pass statement
The pass statement in Python is used when a statement is required syntactically but you do not want any
command or code to execute.
The pass statement is a null operation; nothing happens when it executes. The pass is also useful in places
where your code will eventually go, but has not been written yet (e.g., in stubs for example):
Syntax:
The syntax for a pass statement in Python is as follows:
pass
Example:
#!/usr/bin/python
for letter in 'Python':
if letter == 'h':
pass
print 'This is pass block'
print 'Current Letter :', letter
print "Good bye!"
When the above code is executed, it produces the following result:
Current Letter : P
Current Letter : y
Current Letter : t
This is pass block
Current Letter : h
Current Letter : o
Current Letter : n
Good bye!
